This recently happened to us. Before you go through the chore of
removal, repair and reassembly, (and you *can* do it) try taking off the
flue vent cover and putting a vacuum cleaner to the vent tubes. Also
check the drain tube inside the van- there was some water insidw my
burner. I stuck the vac hose onto that tube as well, and left it there
for a short while in order to make certain that all the moisture
evaporated.
This simple exercise fixed me right up. Make sure that you carefully
reassemble the vent so that the flame doesn't blow out when you're
driving.
